L'Enfant et les Sortilèges, Ravel's (and Colette's) children's opera, quasi the French Peter and the Wolf, should not be missing from Breitkopf & Härtel's series of orchestral and music theater editions of Maurice Ravel's works.
Once again, Ravel expert Jean-François Monnard presents an Urtext edition. It is based on the first printings and all autograph sources. However, it turns out that the composer's traditional piano reduction, even in the original publisher's revised edition, is surprisingly far removed from the score in some places. It can therefore only be used for rehearsal purposes with restrictions. In this respect, the new piano reduction in particular corrects many misleading passages.
The edition is published in the Ravel year 2025. The score and piano reduction contain prose translations of the libretto into German and English in the appendix.
Place of action: A room and the adjoining garden.
